Escargot and Mushroom Soup


From the Kitchen of:  Jo-Ann Levesque
Source:  I've Got To Have That Recipe

I have made this several times and it is excellent.

In a frying pan, melt butter and sauté onions and mushrooms until tender.

In a large saucepan, add chicken broth, sautéed onions and mushrooms. Simmer 1/2 hour.

In a medium sized saucepan, melt butter over medium heat and stir in flour until well blended. Add whipping cream and whisk until thick. Season with salt and pepper.

Melt butter in original frying pan and add escargots, parsley, green onions and garlic. Sauté until tender.

Add all ingredients including wine to the chicken broth and heat through. Do Not Boil.

You can make this a day ahead and refrigerate.
